Yay, I knew you could do it!! You don't know how much I've missed reading your comments (and posts too, heh). ♥ Majorly wondering how many combinations of passwords you have, I only have very few so I rarely lose my password. XD /simpleminded

Thanks, bb. ; A ; April really is a terrible month - last week I nearly lost two friends because the stress got to me and I became tactless without even realising it. I'm such a loser sometimes, really. D: I really don't deserve you guys. (hugs) ♥

After what you said, that's starting to make lots of sense. I need to stop being so immature and start believing in myself more. OTL I'll do my best!! YES CAN I HAVE SOME OF YOUR EGO HAHAHA!
